Fleshhouse - Santa In Flames lyrics
rate me"Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas!"<br />
<br />
A man in his slippers lounges around<br />
Dreaming to pass the time<br />
His head, filled with blues, reds, whites, and yellows<br />
The sky<br />
Filled with black<br />
With nostalgia in pocket, those good old days fly<br />
Skeletons' bones touch the ground<br />
Happy he smiles, dressed in red and in green<br />
But the green is all dying and red is our blood-washed dead sky<br />
<br />
A man in his slippers, holding the key<br />
To a door he unconsciously locked<br />
His plasticized angels<br />
In fool's golden heaven<br />
Snicker as he sleeps<br />
<br />
And barbed wire<br />
It chokes him and cuts him down<br />
Without him even knowing<br />
Tension amounts<br />
The temperature higher<br />
He pushes his Santa<br />
Into the fire<br />
<br />
"Have a merry, merry, merry, merry one!"<br />
<br />
[Repeat]: <br />
Now... Santa's... In... Flames... <br />
<br />
"Here comes Santa Claus, here comes Santa Claus"<br />
"Merry Christmas Everyone!"<br />
"Help me!"<br />
"Santa Claus!"<br />
<br />
The announcer spat babble 'bout faraway wars<br />
The trees were all dying<br />
The streets, filled with whores<br />
Outside the old man was clutching his cane<br />
Watching a child's lungs collapse as he writhed in pain<br />
The hills were eroding<br />
The landfills overflowed<br />
All the world was a time bomb about to explode<br />
The world all around us was closing its doors<br />
But this flare for the dramatic<br />
Can be such a bore<br />
<br />
And all the while<br />
The man - he just snored<br />
Till nothing was left<br />
Nothing to live for<br />
And as Santa burned, plastic face in the ash<br />
It dawned on the man that he had caused this crash<br />
<br />
He wept as he watched Santa burn in the fire<br />
He wept as he watched Santa burn in the fire<br />
In the fire<br />
<br />
"There's no Santa Claus"<br />
"You're safe now [?] ...Santa Claus is gone"
